This is the story of Dev and how he caught a hold of his little badass spitfire. His story has drama, action, sexy bits & everything that makes an audiobook great.

This is the second book in the Space Lords series and follows on from events in His Frost Maiden . We are back with the crew of the Conqueror who seem to have a teensy problem . You see one of them (Rick) angered a spirit and now they find themselves under a curse! Plus their latest member Josselyn, is determined to get vengeance for the deaths of her family but as this story begins its her half sister Violette who is about to be left seeking justice . Yet it’s a twisted tale the author has written about anger, mistrust and a revenge that sets a course straight for the stars!
Violette made her father a promise that when the time came and a woman named Josselyn sought him out Violette would do nothing to hinder her. Jack knows his past will catch up with him but it’s Violette left dealing with the aftermath. Determined to find Josselyn, Violette takes her own ship out hunting but her crew have slightly unorthodox ideas and Dev ends up imprisoned onboard Violettes ship! Now he may look fiery hot but he is all male and try as she may Violette is not immune to his demonic good looks. Yet as a crew member of the Conqueror shouldn’t she somehow use him to get to Josselyn? Well it’s not going to be easy because Dev is fiercely loyal but oh so torn as he starts to see the softer side of Violette.
I loved Dev and his history is truly sad but with his crew mates to back him he has found a place for himself. Violette was put in an awful position and right from the start it’s impossible not to empathise with her. Yes this is a sexy story with dynamic chemistry but what really lifts it is the humour that runs throughout. Snarky guys constantly ribbing each other not to mention hilarious scenes with the most unusual creatures! I don’t know how Ms Pillow dreams up her aliens but boy are they unique.
They say blood is thicker than water but in this book that’s really put to the test. Can Violette fulfil her vendetta and kill Josselyn? If she succeeds what will happen between her and Dev? Buckle up and enjoy the ride as yet again the author takes her readers away from reality and heads straight into a world fuelled by a passionate imagination.
This did work as a standalone as there is a little summary of previous events at the start. I love her Dragon Lords stories which this connects to but it also linked to the Var series. Fun, hot and pure escapism .
I was gifted a copy in exchange for an honest review
I found His Fire Maiden to be very informative, intriguing, romantic, desparete and unbeliveable betrayal. Good Book, enjoyed all the characters and the story line. I was given a copy as a gift from the author without obligation. I am providing an honest review.
This was a great book !

It has all the ingredients that you need for a great book!
I can’t wait for the next book in this series.

This story was an awesome read. I love reading about the Space Lords and catching up on snipits about other characters in the same universe. This book is about Dev and Violette. This book put me through one hell of a ride. It was hot, tear jerking, aggravating, and just overall amazing. I cant wait to devour the next book in this amazing series.
I have been waiting for this book for a long time. We met this crew in previous series and once they were cursed I couldn’t wait to see where Michelle took us. Dev is half Belvon and due to his parentage he has been hated by both his mother and his father’s people. He thinks he doesn’t deserve love because he is a demon and no one could love him. However, when he looks at Violette he is instantly attracted to her. He knows nothing can happen because she is after one of his crew. Violette made a blood oath to her father when she was a little girl to allow Jocelyn to find him and not hinder her. Little did she know she would be bringing her father’s killer to his door. She honored her original blood oath but has made another to honor her father by seeking vengeance on his killer. His killer is Jocelyn, her half-sister, and Dev’s crewmate. Violette doesn’t have the entire story but at the beginning she doesn’t care. There is a lot of anger and pain inside of her. Will she find out about the past before she makes a big mistake? Will Dev and Violette be allowed together? Will the hurt each other to honor those they love?
This is an amazing story and I recommend you read it but I also recommend you read the first book in the series as well as the Lords of Var. All of them are amazing stories.
Michelle has done it again she’s gone and delivered another great story from the Dragon Lord’s. This is Dev’s story and he like the rest of he’s remaining crew were cursed by and Ancient ghost ,that they will find love with in the five element but if they don’t recognize it when it presents itself they will be forever alone. There was a problem with this Dev believes he will never find love because of who and what he was is,he is never meant to be loved.
Violette had made her father a promise that when the time’s a woman named Josselyn will come him and Violette is do nothing to stop her actions. Violette’s father dies at the hands of Josselyn due to so many wrongs dealt to her and he people because of Violette’s father Jack many many years ago. They also find out they are have sister’s via the same mother. But Violette’s plan is to find and kill Josselyn just as she killed he father,she had to she swore a blood oath.
Dev and Violette paths cross and an instant attraction is felt.Their journey will be fill with passion and a few bumps along the way. Both hide their true feeling and one fears that if they don’t do wht is right they might lose family, friends and maybe their honer. Will Dev an Voilette survive their true feeling or will they pick the in doing what they know is right and maybe losing their chance at true love.
Dev is 1/2 Bevlon 1/2 human his adopted family is a band of space pirates (but good ones) on one of there missions together a crewman was messing with a ghost she told them that they will find their mates in the elements but she wouldn’t tell much more. Find the mate or no happy ending.
Violette Craven Stephan was a general’s daughter but was killed in the first book
Will they find happiness?
Oh I love the space lords what a crazy team. Love the fun, craziness and spice. The characters are over the to great. I so can’t wait for the next book.
I am hooked
Own this one on Amazon review and I honestly loved it.
We’re back with the awesome Space Lords!!
Dev may be demonic looking with his red skin and dark eyes but he’s a sweetheart. Sure he can battle with anyone and come out top but all he really wants is someone to love him! He has found a family with the misfit crew but he wants a mate, a match like Jarek and Mei and Evan and Josselyn have.
He is present when his crew is cursed to find their mates within the elements. Evan found Josselyn on an Ice covered planet so that could be water filtered out. Surely his would be a fiery woman?
When he and the crew have to dodge Violette and her blood thirsty revenge on Josselyn for the murder of her father, he finds himself oddly attracted to this vengeful valkyrie!! He and the crew attempt to dissuade her from killing but her hard headedness is getting in the way. So cue a space trip to the planet where they found Josselyn to answer some of her questions.
I LOVED this book!! I loved the Dragon Lords and Lords of Var series of which this is an offshoot. The characters are larger than life and not entirely human looking but all have very human hopes and dreams. Poor Dev just wants to be loved and Violette just wants to avenge her father, the only family she had left. They are just on a collision course to love! I love the family feel of the crew and the insults they float at each other!!!
Bring on more please!
I have enjoyed each and every one of Michelle M Pillow’s Space Lord’s series and love the fantasy world that Michelle has created. Violet is an interesting, complex woman with a few issues to resolve and her and Dev make a very hot couple. Michelle’s stories are so engaging and easy to read. I’m just waiting for Rick’s story as he makes me laugh out loud with his quick wit and sarcasm! Pick this up and read it – you won’t be disappointed!
Well written series. I really love these characters and how they interact with each other with humor and wit. These mismatched social rejects sure get into some scrapes and adventures . I also have the audio book and each book is narrated to perfection.
This is book 2 in Pillow’s Space Lords series. An out of this world romance that is well written and fabulously narrated. Good characters with some twists and turns as well as some character growth and of course a HEA that is heart warming. Blood oaths and family ties are leading as well as instant chemistry found in our main characters – Dev and Violet. Looking forward to seeing what is next in this series and the band of space pirates who are fulfilling their destiny and breaking their curse.
This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.
*this review is based on the audio version of this read
What a great story!
I so love engaging in new worlds and new stories and the author doesn’t disappoint!
This is the second book in the series and it was soooo good!
I was hooked from the first page till the last.
This book had it all!
Suspence,romance, hot steamy sex and it was delicious!
Great reading from beginning to end and so hard to put down. Really enjoyed this adventure. Action packed, emotional roller-coaster filled with witty and engaging charters, dangerous twists and heart racing turns.
Readers familiar with Pillow’s Dragon Lord books will feel right at home in the Space Lord books—a spinoff series set in the Qurilixen universe. His Fire Maiden is book two in the series, and will definitely be easier to understand – at least in the beginning – if you have read the first book in the series previously. If you haven’t had the pleasure, you can certainly muddle through, but it wouldn’t be the best way to experience the tale.
The story has Pillow’s usual strong, sympathetic characters, irresistible romance, comprehensive world-building and sheer rollicking storytelling. Readers will find themselves swept along on Dev and Violet’s journey, with some sweet touches along the way. There are some early-in-the-story time jumps and disconnects that might seem confusing, but these scenes are quite necessary for the set-up of the story – both a furtherance in the overall story the Space Lords trilogy delves into, as well as the very personal and intimate relationship that develops between our hero and heroine. Despite involving unspeakably cruel and heartless events in the characters’ history, His Fire Maiden focuses nicely on the romantic elements of the story, leaving the reader satisfied emotionally while still curious about the Space Lords world and intrigued by all the heroes who will have stories. I was slowed down by the set-up of the story, but ultimately quite enjoyed His Fire Maiden, and will definitely be reading the other books in the series!

Fiery Love
Michelle M. Pillow’s second book in her ‘Space Lords’ series is reaching beyond the stars. The cosmos is exploding with adventure, suspense and romance in this book. Dev and Violette, the main characters, have a smoking connection. Violette is captain of her own ship and her crew kidnaps Dev to try and capture Violette’s half-sister Josselyn. She wants revenge on Josselyn because she killed her father. The more time she spends with Dev, the more deeper she falls for him. This book was so riveting it was hard to put down. Highly recommended and definitely a MUST read!
In the second story, Dev is the one that finds Violette, who is a half-sister to the wife of Evan. Josselyn had killed the father of Violette and she had wanted vengeance on Josselyn, but when they come face to face it is totally different. They end up working together and the action and drama between the entire group is fantastic. The characters are terrific, with plenty of backstories and intense feelings. Loved the strength they show in protecting each other, even the sisters. The suspense in parts of the story, like the later time with Dev, will keep you on the edge. Loved the ending and can not wait to read the next story. Which of the brothers is next and can he get out of the curse as well?

This is the second of the Space Lords series and is set in the Qurilixen world. This one follows after Evan and Josselyn’s story. Concerning strong and commanding Dev who has found a home with the misfit crew and feisty Violet who is out to destroy said crew. This short story is full of twists and turns and will keep you reading to find out if Dev and Violet do finally find a HEA.

Vengeance or Justice
These are the decisions Captain Violette Stephans faces as her pursuit of her unverified half-sister Josselyn for killing her father, Jack. This is a continuation from book 1: His Frost Maiden (Josselyn and Evan’s story). The author notes at the book’s preface the significance of reading the book in chronological order and which books to begin reading. This establishes storyline and foundation as these books follow along the same theme. Which is good because reading individually there is enough history to understand but not the full impact and emphasis. Kudos for the caution! We know about Dev from book 1: His Frost Maiden and get a glimpse into Captain Violette and her oath against Josselyn. However we get the meat of their story in His Fire Maiden. A very good read and not as violent as I expected with the death threats but lovely. Now to read the next Maiden story to see which of the remaining 3 cursed crewmen get their chance at love.
